Completion: August 2025
Location: Chuen May Food Products Dim Sum at 1 St SE and Riverfront Ave, Calgary, AB
Located at the edge of Calgary’s Chinatown, this storefront intervention was developed through conversations with a local dim sum business owner about increasing street presence and creating a stronger visual identity.
Dim sum serves as the central visual motif, drawing from an important culinary tradition rooted in sharing food and gathering around the table. The circular composition echoes both the shape of the dishes and the window itself, while referencing the round dining table as a symbol of togetherness. Bold colours and simplified illustrations create a welcoming image that remains legible from a distance.
Created in collaboration with the local non-profit organization Diversecities, this project was funded by Calgary Arts Development.
